Been here Twice and both have been great, food is very flavorful, service is very good and they serve you very fast. They make their own chili paste oil which was perfect on the sesame shrimp. My mouth just watering by thinking of it. It was spicy but I like a good kick. It was a good portion so it we only was able to eat half and the rest was lunch. I will definitely come back for the happy hours

My partner and I stopped in while out and about to try out their happy hour. We had the pleasure of being seated with Kat. She provided amazing service and top knotch recommendations on the food. She was able to give additional information and feedback on each item we ordered which really built our confidence in the product. We had a few apps (definitely get the chili dumplings and Wonton soup). Will definitely join the rotation for best happy hours in Richmond - especially with Kat!!!!

The servers were okay, they were a bit rude when I dropped my lipstick (not sure why they laughed at me for that) but the food was pretty good. Some plates lacked flavor. It’s a hit or a miss, some days it’s good some days it’s bland. I wouldn’t come back here on a regular basis but only when I’m craving specific dishes I come here. Parking is difficult to find.

I've had dinner at Peter Chang's many times and tried quite a few of the menu items. The Bubble Pancake is always a good starter and the kids love it. Speaking of kids, some of the main dishes pack a spicy tongue numbing punch and children may not be ready for that. For appetizers I always get the Dry-Fried Eggplant and the Bamboo Fish. Those are both similarly seasoned with cilantro and some pretty potent hot pepper🌶️ flakes that will ruin your taste buds for the rest of the dinner if you are not careful. It's a love/ hate thing for me with the heat. Peter Chang's hot seasoning is a different kind of hot than a hot sauce. I literally couldn't taste anything after eating the Bamboo Fish (pictured) dish which I recently ordered as a meal size portion. Stick with the appetizer size portion on the Bamboo Fish. The Golden Mountain of Chicken or Mongolian Beef is very satisfying and "safe" for kids. My wife likes the Eggplant in Garlic Sauce (pictured). That's probably one of several vegetarian options. I've tasted it and it's good, but personally I wouldn't make it my main meal. All the soups I've tried are really good. The Crispy Pork Belly is delicious. Lots of menu items to explore, most with a spicy flare. Some of the original charm of Peter Chang's has worn off for me, but it's still a unique Asian style restaurant that stands out in the crowd. Service was good. The restaurant can get pretty crowded and tables are maybe a bit too close together for some who prefer more privacy.
